How the heck did that thing leaf out already in 5a? Looks nice by the way!

Hey thanks whaas. They just leaved out within the last couple days. We have had extremely warm weather here in Iowa lately, everything has exploded all of a sudden.

Botann, I love your garden. Every picture I have seen looks like it came from a book on gardening.
